âJohn Paul II will entrust our important prayer intentions to the intercession of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary close to the Father,â organizers said.

What Obama Could Learn From Porn Industry

Church will have no part in health care that destroys life, New York archbishop insists

I am late posting this, and it should be read in its entirety. If I can find his talk online, I'll post it also.

The article ends:

The Archbishop of New York explained that the first thing that needs to be said is that “every health care system exists only to serve human life, not the other way around.”

“Human life is not some commodity, some customer, some cog that is at the service of a bigger system or some bureaucratic network,” but rather, it is “the end in itself and health care is how it is protected."

If health care begins to lead to the “destruction of human life” through avenues such as abortion, end of life care, or the discarding human embryos, then “we say it’s no longer health care at all.

“It’s unhealthy care and we can’t be part of that,” Archbishop Dolan stated.

While some people question the Church’s involvement in the debate surrounding health care reform, Dolan insisted that the Church should have a voice in the health care debate “because nearly one out of every five patients in the United States who is in a hospital is under the embrace of the Church in a Catholic health care network.”

“So please listen to us because we’ve been in this business a heck of a long time,” he said recalling that members of the Catholic Church were the ones who “opened up the first clinics, hospitals and health care networks.”

“Don’t exclude us now because you might be uncomfortable with the very values that gave rise to this magnificent network,” he urged.

Jane asks the President if her 100 year old mother (now 105) would have gotten a pacemaker under his plan. Well now that's a tough one ... that costs a lot and maybe we will have to say, just take a pill. Priceless.

Jail officials censored mother's letters over religious content

This is OUTRAGEOUS! Absolutely outrageous!

Rappahannock Regional Jail in northern Virginia needs to answer a few questions:

Do they allow their prisoners to have a BIBLE if one is wanted?? Or is that also off limits?? Would they allow Mein Kampf or Karl Marx's works? What about the Koran? If the mother of an inmate quoted from any of those writings, would they ALSO have been sliced out of the letters??
